The right-back played alongside the likes of Presnel Kimpembe and Kingsley Coman during his time as part of the youth structure at the Ligue 1 club before leaving in 2015.

After moving to Switzerland to play for FC La Chaux-de-Fonds, Diakiese joined Croatian side NK Rudes before heading back to France to play for AS Furiani.

And the fifth-tier side confirmed the news of Diakiese’s death on Friday, tweeting on their official account:

“Our club is in mourning today. It’s with deep and immense sadness that we’ve learnt of the death of our player Jordan D, 24, yesterday afternoon in Paris.

“After arriving last July, this amazing kid was a winner both on the pitch and beyond. Always smiling, discreet, hard-working, he settled in very quickly.

“The whole Furianinca family is reeling from the news. The staff, Jordan’s team-mates, as well as all the directors and volunteers have been hit hard.

“Our thoughts are, first and foremost, with his family, friends and loved ones. Rest in peace, Jordan. You’ll always be a Furianincu lion.”
